Boosting Milk Yield Starts with Calf Growth – LIVE WEBINAR

Wednesday 22 July –

Maximising your future herd productivity and milk yield starts with getting your heifer calves off to a strong start.

Join NZAgbiz for a LIVE webinar exploring the insights from a seven-year AgResearch study into how early calf development links to long-term outcomes, especially in New Zealand’s pasture-based systems.  

Hear from Dr Ajmal Khan (Bioeconomy Science Institute) in this practical session breaking down what drives calf growth in those early weeks—and why it matters later on. Learn about liquid feed options including quality, feeding approaches, and strategies that you can use to feed for growth. 

Through this webinar you will discover: 

  • The fundamentals of good early growth 
  • How to measure growth 
  • Milk feeding strategies that impact growth outcomes 
  • The research into long-term performance 

Invest in your herds productivity by starting your calves off strong!
